Note the Everglade Drive carpark gates are locked at 4.30pm each day, please ensure your vehicle exits before this time.

Dinosaur Encounters take approximately 20 minutes and are free to attend. There is a fee to enter the ‘Dino Zone’ between shows ($5 per child, $2 per adult). Activities in the Dino Zone include dinosaur petting, dino selfies, sieving for a fossil shark tooth to take home and the chance to get up close to a nest of Tyrannosaurus Rex eggs!

Face painting, balloons and dinosaur merchandise will also be available for purchase.

FAQs

Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?

We advise parental discretion for under five year olds – but we may be exaggerating the fright factor just a little. The dinosaurs are pretty friendly and the shows are not intended to be scary. We're leaving it to parents to decide as they know their kids best.

If your little one is not impressed with the show, you can take a walk around the Gardens instead, you won't be locked into the show area.

What are my transport/parking options for getting to and from the event?

Our main carpark fills up quickly on weekends. To avoid the traffic and queues, we recommend you use the designated parking at the Everglade Drive entrance to the gardens.
